Default button that controls macros?

Hello:

My co-workers and I have researched this issue for our client hundreds of
times and we cannot seem to get an answer.

We have created a macro for a few workstations. The macro is ignited from
another application that exports data to Excel. After the data is dumped to
Excel, the macro formats the spreadsheet and does a few other things.

On that workstation--and just that workstation--two Excel spreadsheets are
created. There is only supposed to be one spreadsheet. The data from the
other app gets dumped into a named spreadsheet but, on this one workstation,
a second spreadsheet called "Book 1" is created.

It has to be something at this workstation this is causing this additional
spreadsheet (Book 1) and not the macro. We have looked at everything and we
have run out of ideas.

Is there a setup checkbox or something like that in Excel that creates an
additional spreadsheet, when a macro is run? Does anyone out there have any
ideas?

Thanks!
